Beer

Life has escaped me! Since my last post, I got married and moved to California. It would appear my blog was neglected in the process. For those on the edge of their seats waiting to hear about Fort Collins breweries, today is the big day. Let’s keep it short and sweet to get back in […]

After spending a couple days in downtown Denver, we ventured north for a night in Boulder. If you’re into nature, you’ll love Boulder. There were plentiful hiking options and beautiful mountain scenery. In terms of beer, I didn’t love the city as much as Denver though. However it’s a short drive and worth the trip […]

We gave up beer for a few days after our trip to Denver. Why? Because we went to more than THIRTY breweries in 4.5 days. That can wear out even the most mighty beer drinker. Did I regret it? No. Our beer trip to Colorado was in September- I’m months behind on posting, per usual. We’d been wanting to […]

I was lucky enough to attend MozCon on a work trip this summer (#marketinggeek) and arrived a day early– so what did I do? Breweries of course! Last time I was in Seattle I spent my time at breweries downtown, so this trip I ventured north of Lake Union to check out what was happening on the […]

Only beer could make a city full of live music, random celebrity appearances and hot chicken even better. Let’s talk about Nashville beer. Nashville is a fun place! Over the past few years, it seems to have gone through some crazy development. Housing is booming, bars are booming… oh, and of course tourism is booming. […]

Typically I find myself at the local Cincinnati beer festivals once or twice a year. Fun! However, I’ve found that I’ve already tried most of the beer, or at least had something from that particular brewery already. Since I’m one to continually try new beers and breweries, it’s not the best scenario for me personally. Though I will […]

As an Ohio State grad, Columbus is near and dear to my heart. When I was there of course, I was drinking less craft and more crap. College budget problems. In my defense, I don’t think there were a ton of good beer options during my time there anyway. As soon as I graduated, there was more […]

Sierra Nevada’s second location (original in Chico, CA) opened a couple years ago in Fletcher, North Carolina which is about 25 minutes south of Asheville. This is another huge facility like New Belgium and definitely a place to check out. They also have a delicious onsite restaurant which is usually packed. Not to mention the amphitheater, […]

If you want to be thoroughly impressed with a brewery’s space and production, head to New Belgium and Sierra Nevada while in Asheville. Both of these locations are a second “campus” (I felt like I was walking around a fancy school or resort) to what I assume to be even more impressive headquarters. What an awesome experience to […]

First of all, if anyone actually reads this blog, I apologize for my long hiatus… but I’m back to give you the scoop on Asheville! Given the struggle to finish my San Diego travels, I figured I’d kick it off with a general list of my faves from top to bottom, and detail some of the […]
